Let’s get straight to the facts:
5 > 3
In this case inequality is an absolute.
In Marxist ideology all values must be under the same collective by:
5 = 3x
In this case inequality is an absolute as well, however, using an absolute power [central authority] 3 can = 5.
This use of force is justified under a common purity test in totalitarian belief systems. For example, Marx purity test deems any producing class not associated with the underlining median as an oppressor. Hence, USSR purged producing farmers, NAZIs purged producing Jews, and Diversity Officers often target based on race and gender for hiring.
If historical evils were not a red haring to justify people’s natural envy of groups with more resources, then would equality advocacy at all be a virtue?
